willy13 Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 12/06/2011 8:07 pm It sure looks like a 1971P-1DO-001 to me, mainly from looking at the "L" in liberty and "GOD". Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 12/06/2011 10:13 pm Yup, that's the one! A nice doubled die! At one time these were bringing close to $500 in nice red BU condition. Yours is less than half that value, but still a really nice one! I have never found an example of this die.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 12/07/2011 11:08 am That's kinda funny since it isn't really visible in the date, especially on circulated coins. It's really only readily apparent in LIBERTY and IN GOD. Report this Post to the Staff
Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 12/07/2011 6:57 pm What is on the top right of the 7 and on the end of the 9 (inside part)...I swear I see doubling! Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 12/08/2011 06:53 am What you see in the date are probably coin hits. Trust me...the doubled die on this coin is barely visible under magnification on the date, and that's just for nice EDS examples in mint state. I've seen enough of these I should know. I've never 'found' one of them, but I have owned a couple, and I have attributed another dozen or so. Report this Post to the Staff
